Introduction to LANs, WANs and Other Kinds of Area Networks One way to categorize the different types of computer network designs is by their scope or scale. For historical reasons, the networking industry refers to nearly every type of design as some kind of area network. Common types of area networks are: LAN - Local Area Network. WAN - Wide Area Network.

More About Network Cabling More About Network Cabling. The most commonly used types of network cable are the twisted pair, coaxial, Ethernet cross over, and fiber optic. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is used in many Ethernet networks. It has four pairs of wires that are housed inside of the lining of the cable.

Introduction to LANs, WANs and Other Kinds of Area Networks LAN and WAN are the two primary and best-known categories of area networks, while the others have emerged with technology advances. Note that network types differ from network topologies (such as bus, ring and star).

Classful network A Class B network was a network in which all addresses had the two most-significant bits set to 1 and 0. For these networks, the network address was given by the next 14 bits of the address, thus leaving 16 bits for numbering host on the network for a total of 65536 addresses per network.ach class, coded in the first four bits of the address, defines either a different network size, i.e. number of hosts for unicast addresses (classes A, B, C), or a multicast network (class D). The fifth class (E) address range is reserved for future or experimental purposes.

Network Protocol - Types of Network Protocols The followings are some commonly used network symbols to draw different kinds of network protocols. Ethernet. The Ethernet protocol is by far the most widely used one. Ethernet uses an access method called CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection).

Types of Networks Different types of networks provide different services, and require different things to work properly. Most network types are known as different types of ‘area’ networks – this is due to the history of networks, and dates back to the time when computer networks were defined by their literal scale. This is no longer always the case due to new technology.

- Basic Networking: Switches. Switches and routers are what basic networking is all about. Though they look similar and perform similar tasks, there is a difference. Switches are the foundation of most business networks. A switch acts as a controller, connecting computers, printers and servers to a network within a building or campus.

Ethernet Tutorial â Part I: Networking Basics Network topology is the geometric arrangement of nodes and cable links in a LAN. Two general configurations are used, bus and star. These two topologies define how nodes are connected to one another in a communication network. A node is an active device connected to the network, such as a computer or a printer.

Types of Wireless Networks There are basically three different types of wireless networks – WAN, LAN and PAN: Wireless Wide Area Networks (WWAN): WWANs are created through the use of mobile phone signals typically provided and maintained by specific mobile phone (cellular) service providers. WWANs can provide a way to stay connected even when away from other forms of network access.

Computer network Common layouts are: 1  A bus network: all nodes are connected to a common medium along this medium. This was the layout used in the original Ethernet, called 10BASE5 and 10BASE2. 2  A star network: all nodes are connected to a special central node.

Network Protocol - Types of Network Protocols Network Protocol is a set of rules that governs the communications between computers on a network. Rules of Network Protocol include guidelines that regulate the following characteristics of a network: access method, allowed physical topologies, types of cabling, and speed of data transfer.

Mesh Topology There are different types of physical topologies. They are bus topology, star topology, ring topology, tree topology, mesh topology, etc. Mesh Network Topologies Defined. Mesh is a type of network setup, where each of the computers and devices are interconnected to one another.

Different Types of Internet Packets You can choose from four basic Internet packet protocols: raw IP, ICMP, UDP (unreliable messaging), and TCP (streaming) all layered on top of the physical network (see Figure 3.1). This chapter describes each type and presents their advantages, disadvantages, and typical uses.

What Are The Three Types Of Networks? Video: Types of Networks: LAN, WAN, WLAN, MAN, SAN, PAN, EPN & VPN There are so many different types of computer networks in existence, it can be hard to understand the differences between them, particularly the ones with very similar-sounding names.

LAN Network Topologies 4 Describe a ring topology. In a ring topology, all hosts and devices are connected in the form of a ring or circle. The following two types of ring networks exist: - Single-ring: In a single-ring network, all devices share a single cable and data travels in one direction. Each device waits its turn to send data over the network.

Introduction to Network Cables Two primary types of twisted pair cable industry standards have been defined: Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) and Shielded Twisted Pair (STP). Modern Ethernet cables use UTP wiring due to its lower cost, while STP cabling can be found in some other types of networks such as Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI).

Network Media Types This chapter describes the common types of network media, including twistedpair cable, coaxial cable, fiber-optic cable, and wireless. Twisted-pair cable is a type of cabling that is used for telephone communications and most modern Ethernet networks. A pair of wires forms a circuit that can transmit data.

Types of Network Topology In this type of topology all the computers are connected to a single hub through a cable. This hub is the central node and all others nodes are connected to the central node. 1  Every node has its own dedicated connection to the hub.  Hub acts as a repeater for data flow.

- Network Media Whatever type of network is used, some type of network medium is needed to carry signals between computers. Two types of media are used in networks: cable-based media, such as twisted pair, and the media types associated with wireless networking, such as radio waves. In networks using cable-based media, there are three basic choices:.

Networking Basic Concepts and Fundamentals Explained Topologies. The first thing to consider about a network is its physical shape, or the design layout, which will be extremely important when you select a wiring scheme and design the wiring for a new installation. Network really has two shapes, or two types of topology; one is physical and the other is logical. The physical topology is the shape you can see, and the logical topology is the shape that the data travels in.
